Description
The present invention relates to a molten steel temperature measuring apparatus, and more particularly, to a molten steel temperature measuring apparatus capable of easily measuring a molten steel temperature even if some slag floating on the molten steel contained in the ladle coagulates.
Generally, molten steel produced in a blast furnace is transferred to a destination (casting process) after it is placed in a ladle. A sample of molten steel contained in the ladle is sampled and the temperature and the composition of the molten steel are measured to remove impurities Thereby improving the quality.
This process is referred to as a RH process, and the RH process will be described in detail with reference to FIG.
As described above, conventionally, when the steel ladle by the bogie arrives at the processing position, the worker starts processing (S10). At this time, the control of the composition of the molten steel, the temperature control and the improvement of the cleanliness of the molten steel Work is done.
When the temperature, the component, and the cleanliness have reached the target in the above process, the operator is given an instruction to end the process (S80), and the steel ladder moves out of the processing position of the RH facility and moves to the performance process for slab production.
In the process start (S10), a vacuum facility is operated to forcibly remove the impurity components (CO, CO2, H, N, and the like) of molten steel to perform a pressure reduction operation from atmospheric pressure to a reference pressure.
Next, in the operation step of the molten steel reflux (S20), argon (AR) gas, which is an inert gas, is blown in order to homogenize the temperature and components in the molten steel.
In the sampling TSA (S30), sampling and analysis are performed using a disposable flobe to check the temperature, component, and dissolved oxygen content in the molten steel before deoxidation. Temperature measurements using these consumable (one-time) probes should be performed approximately four times during RH work.
The next step is to introduce the deoxidized material (S40) into the molten steel to remove the oxygen content in the molten steel during the ultra-low carbon steel work.
At the end of the deagglomerating step, a sampling TSO (S50) is performed to confirm the oxygen removal amount, and the subsequent step is to adjust the molten steel such as carbon, manganese, and titanium in the molten steel, .
As a final step, after the sampling TS (S70) operation is performed to finally confirm the change of the molten steel temperature and the molten steel component due to the operation of the alloying iron, the operation of the RH equipment is terminated (S80).
The RH facility process, which has these processes, is a key facility for making high-quality clean steel. In order to satisfy the needs of the demand, the clean-up of components, temperature and molten steel is indispensable work for optimum refining work.

However, since the
Therefore, the worker must manually measure the temperature of the molten steel (9), which increases the worker's workload and causes safety accidents.
Further, since the expensive probe 1 a for measuring temperature is required to be measured every time until a desired temperature value is obtained, the production cost burden and the operation delay during the temperature measurement time occur, thereby causing a decrease in productivity.
Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem [8] Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a molten steel temperature measuring apparatus which can easily measure the temperature and reduce the cost by measuring the molten steel at a position where the slag is not solidified.
Further, there is provided a molten steel temperature measuring device capable of improving the reliability of the molten steel temperature measurement value.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, a molten steel temperature measuring apparatus includes a main frame installed to be movable up and down in a ladle direction; A thermal image camera provided on the main frame so as to image the upper surface of the molten steel accommodated in the ladle; A control unit for receiving the image information received from the thermal imager and dividing the image information into a plurality of regions and selecting a temperature measurement region; And a temperature measuring unit installed on the main frame to measure the temperature of the molten steel so as to be rotatable around the main frame so as to measure the temperature of the molten steel in the temperature measuring area.
The temperature measuring unit may include: a rotating frame rotatably installed in the main frame; A driving motor for rotating the rotating frame about the main frame; A lance fixed to the rotating frame; And a temperature measuring probe detachably attached to the bottom surface of the lance so as to measure the temperature of the molten metal accommodated in the ladle.
Preferably, the apparatus for measuring a temperature of molten steel according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include an air spraying unit capable of spraying air to the lens unit of the thermal imaging camera to cool and simultaneously remove foreign matter.
And the controller may select the temperature measurement area by measuring color and temperature of each area.
The control unit may divide the color and temperature of each region into a range of 0 to 9 so that the brightness and the temperature increase as the brightness and the temperature increase and add the sum and select the region having the highest value as the temperature measurement region .
According to the embodiment of the present invention, the temperature can be easily measured by selecting the position where the molten steel is easily measured because there is no slag floating on the molten steel as the temperature measurement region and by measuring the temperature of the molten steel in the temperature measurement region , The reliability of the temperature measurement result can be improved, and further, the quality of the molten steel can be improved.
In addition, since the temperature measuring probe and the thermal imaging camera are minimized to be exposed to high temperatures, life can be improved and manufacturing cost can be reduced.
